Negotiations for the sale of the gas oline schooner Anvil fo W. T. Loaiza, a San Francisco business man represent ing Mexican interests, have reached a stage where she will be drydocked this morning at the Port of Portland plant for an examination of her hull, and it satisfactory to the purchaser the ves sel will be prepared at once for voy age to San Francisco to be fitted out for the Mexican trade. The Anvil plied between Portland and Oregon coast ports as far as Ban- don for a lengthy period, and on being withdrawn from t Ike trade was moored at the O. W. P. wharf, where she has been for about 20 months. She is a twin-screw ship, and is rated the best appointed vessel of her type on the Coast as regards passenger accommo dations. . She also is a good carrier for her size'. She was turned 4ut at San Francisco in 1905, and for a time plied in the Alaskan trade. The vessel has a length j of 116 feet, beam of 24.5 feet and depth ! of hold of 16.5 feet. Her gross tonnage is 363.64, and she is of 276.04 tons net register. While out of water the vessel will be cleaned and two coats of cop per paint applied, probably some re adjustment being made in the star board stern bearing. The Anvil is the last of the idle ton nage of the Coast type held here," and while negotiations have been made in the past, her owners have refused to accent offers for the ship. For a time the steamers Alliance and Golden Gate keDt her company at the O. W. P. wharf, but the former was chartered bv the South Sea Navigation Company and is in service from San Francisco to ports in the South, while a few weeks ago San Francisco interests pur chased the Golden Gate, and she is at the California metropolis, having re pairs made before going on a perma nent run. WOODEN SHIPS ARE LIKELY tain Mason was approached by F. L. Donovan, of Aberdeen. Wash., who said he would marry at sea on the next voyae of the ship, which sail Saturday, if competent authority would hold the union to be valid in view of the legal complications preventing such a marriage ashore. The Beaver brought a number of passengers, among them Dr. Catherine C. Manion, returning from a California visit, R. M. Dooley, who made the round voyage and other Portlanders. In the way of cargo the steamer had a large shipment of eggs from Petaluma, the usual consignments of oranges and additional freight totaling 1400 tons. The trip up the Coast was under the most favorable conditions, reported Captain Mason. The only change in his official personnel is that George Fitzmaurice, who holds a masters ticket and has been acting watchman for a time, is filling the berth of third ' officer, due to Second Officer Ettershank being in a hospital at San Francisco, where be -underwent an op eration.

V 1 Unarecedented Construction Era Prompts New Interest in Plants. Demand for wooden vessels for tne Pacific trade, most of which are planned with auxiliary engines, has introduced into the Portland and Co lumbia River field at least three pros nectlve shiDbuilding projects, two proposed by Portlanders. and a third being fostered by outside interests. the latter being regarded as the most tangible at present. All yards on the pacine coast aeai ine in wooden ships are unable to ac cept contracts offered, and a large fleet is under construction, with rea son to believe that the demand for new tonnage will continue throughout the year. The scarcity of bottoms that has drawn out every vessel cap able of being fitted into the Pacific trade, has increased the field ror Dower-driven vessels, so auxiliary schooners are being adopted rapidly, yet some vessel owners are willing as well to increase their fleets witn wen- known Coast types that depend solely on canvas for making headway, even in the face of predictions that wind jammers were gradually being forced from the commerce 01 , tne woria Dy rapidly growing steam fleets. OLSON & MAHONY IS RENAMED Well-Known Coaster Now Providen- cla and Goes in New Trade. Providencia is the new name of the teamer Olson & Mahony. which tne firm of Olson & Mahony built and not long ago she became the property of Oliver J. Olson, when the firm was dis- olved, and . soon after he sold tne essel to the Compagnie du Boleo, 01 Santa Rosalia. It is understood the Slade Lumber Company will also be in terested in her future operation. Another sale being negotiated is that f the bid steamer Minnesota, now at San Francisco for repairs, which the Great Northern Steamship Company is expected to sell toBritish and French capitalists, the price talked 01 in snip- insr circles being close to 3,uuu,uuu, though the original cost of the vessel was M.'JOO.oOO. One reason assigned for the price being less than the cost is hat her beam Is too great tor tne Panama Canal. She is having new boilers installed at present at a cost of 100.000.

Food scientists now hold that the lack of these elements is one of the chief causes of a long list of ills, including anemia, constipation, nervous prostration, kidney trouble, and so on.
